Peter struck in the notorious anti-trump tester we texture rather who we now
learn was escorted out of FBI headquarters Friday afternoon apparently
still the payroll as the IG confirms he's reviewing whether or not strux
anti-trump bias impacted the origination of the Russia investigation as trade
yachty said yesterday that's a similar question Rudy Giuliani president Trump's
attorney with me now live in studio and nice to see you again sir thanks for
coming back I got about 300 questions let's see how we do you told Sean
Hannity the last night you think this the entire matter is very very close to
being closed well what it means it's being so tainted that they can't do
anything with it yet they may not close it themselves but if in fact this is
infected with a bias of major proportions from the beginning by struck
and it seems like it is and he left behind some of his cohorts we believe
there may be two of the people with similar biases expressed in text they're
presently working on the investigation if that's the case and how can you trust
anything they're doing in this investigation that might be the case
with regard to struck but Muller could then work through that evidence and
figure out well what carries a bias and what does not could he not Wow
it's hard enough to decide whether to indict or recommend some criminal action
or recommend that somebody did something wrong it's hard enough to do that when
you've got a completely objective staff around you when you have guys around you
who is saying stop the president America must be saved we have to stop them at
all cost you can't possibly trust that I can't see a court allowing them any
other indictments to go forward any reporter there's to be issued unless
this gets solved I said a couple of days ago even before all this came out we
have to investigate the investigators in order to determine whether it's a valid
investigation so when you say get this solve do you mean what was happening
with him the yep yeah yeah it's terrible I don't think I've ever seen anything
like this before in the history of the FBI in the Justice Department
and it took the president Attorney General and Deputy Attorney General and
director of the FBI a long time to wake up to it not sure they completely woke
up to it yet well you said last night James Comey is
going to jail I believe he is I believe Comey is on he's done based on the way
in which he initiated the probe with a illegal leak
I have no idea why hasn't been investigated about it before apparently
he's being investigated now the way in which he and mccabe have contradicted
each other somebody's lying his deception about what he did with FBI
302s that's a 302 the thing that he wrote he's gone as a witness for anybody
in anything with any credibility dr. Muller I assume you're not going to talk
to him well I don't use the president's
attorney if not gonna advise him to sit down oh I see what you're saying not
completely I mean it depends on what on what they offer what they come up with
how narrow the questioning is I certainly won't sit down with him with
these questions still lingering about whether these people are a kangaroo
court and a firing squad who in his right mind would put their client in
front of people like that whether Republican Democrat liberal conservative
but see you haven't closed the door on talking to both have not closed the door
is that silk it may are you still negotiating with yeah yeah we also
interview our staff is their staff is and where would you characterize the
state of those negotiations as to where you are in advising your client with a
major stumbling block this investigation and the investigation of the
investigators how many people weren't affected by it how much did it affect
their determinations a morning raid of of mana forts home a raid of a lawyer's
office Cohen the kind of strange things that we're doing here with the leaks
that went on how about the FBI agents who will work on this investigation who
were receiving gifts and vacations and tickets to ballgames for information it
wasn't just leaking but they were getting money in essence things of value
you're right of things they put me or the city cops it shows you how deep the
waters run here and you're exactly right we need
to figure out and a lot of this comes back to Muller and Christopher Rea to
straighten things out but yet 13,000 FBI agents who don't have a problem you have
absolute end god bless over maybe 15 who do you think the same thing is true with
Police Department but here's the question those 13 thousand more working
on this case remember the IG four months ago I think and that was all about some
prior to the campaign on this show there's about to be a surprise another
they showed me the tape and I said they'd be a surprise answer what I was
talking about was a speech of which I have in this I thought by the president
that I was recommending on the Friday before the election on national
television the way Ronald Reagan did I was not talking about a leak of code
from commis people or why would they leave to me was there there's a
suggestion that perhaps some people especially in New York had ties to the
lawyers working with Anthony Weiner and perhaps there was some information that
was kept behind closed doors that suggested that the Hillary Clinton
emails were on a laptop would that apply to these surprised that you were talking
I have no knowledge of that and I didn't know that it was I was as shocked as
anyone that it involved you know the pervert I mean come on yes right imagine
the people on immigration what would you expect the President to do today Peter
King says you go ahead and take the pressure off this right now maybe this
is I don't sort of executive action you work for the i ns during the reagan
supposed to the president this morning as I do say almost every more you
wouldn't talk about I'm not this isn't my area I try to stay out of it I you
know for the good of the country I take that statement I saw that the president
has a solution in mind to move this thing forward since I think he's very
disappointed that the Democrats want to make this a political football I think
he thought he could get a comprehensive solution but you know he's in favor of
not all Republicans are in favor of that he gets hit on the right for that he
gets hit on the left for not being in favor of open borders and you know let
the ms-13 sneak in with everybody else you know
they're herding cats on the hill on that yeah and it's a trap it's a tragedy and
abuse but he feels this more than Donald Trump believe me is that what he told
you I know that I worked on the immigration issue with him all
throughout the campaign he's got a very big heart doesn't want to see this
happen but he wants to see everybody treated fairly and the Democrats are
holding up the comprehensive solution they could have had with Bush way back
let's see what happens today god god bless those kids I hope everything works
out thank you for coming by today Rudy Giuliani thanks it talked to him he ran
the Clinton investigation he runs the Russian investigation and he hates the
president but your report says while his biased cast a cloud it didn't impact
final decisions is that accurate bias is all the way through this and I'm sorry
that you were not able to see that in this country we cannot live in a world
where unelected people at the FBI get to shelter someone who I believe was
actively working against the president what is more textbook bias than
prejudging this investigation before it's over and this one before it began
new fallout tonight from today's heated hearing on the hill that was a small
piece of it lawmakers grilled Inspector General Michael Horowitz on why FBI
agent Peters trucks anti-trump bias was not found to be an influence on the
Clinton email investigation and tonight struck is responding saying those
lawmakers are actually the ones who are biased a short time ago his lawyer
releasing a statement saying in part quote all of this seriously calls into
question the impartiality of the disciplinary process which now appears
tainted by political influence instead of publicly calling for a
long-serving FBI agent to be some summarily fired politicians should allow
the disciplinary process to play out free from political pressure here now
exclusively congressman Bob Goodlatte and trey Gowdy who chaired the two
committees that questioned the IG Horowitz today thank you to both of you
and for your time tonight congressman Gowdy I'll start with you first I know
that that is the first year hearing of Peters trucks attorney and that letter
responding today I hope he says that when he comes from
for Congress I hope that is this defense that he's a victim this is the same guy
that said his fellow-citizens he could smell them if they were Trump supporters
this is the same guy that said the election should be 100 million to
nothing this is the same guy who slept walked through the Hillary Clinton
investigation then woke up and got real excited at the prospect of ending the
Trump campaign or ending the Trump presidency I hope to goodness that he
comes to Congress and next week and that's his defense congressman good luck
it's a pretty unbelievable statement that says he is the target of unfounded
personal attacks political games and inappropriate information leaks there is
absolutely no question that all across our two committees members on both sides
the aisle acknowledged how appalled they were by the statements that he made and
many acknowledge that making those statements using government offices and
government equipment is highly inappropriate and it clearly reflected
upon the distinction between these two investigations where his bias shows
through clear and clear but in any event I agree with tray we want to have him
before the committee he has now indicated that he would come voluntarily
but he has not pinned himself down on when so we are imminently going to issue
a subpoena to him to appear next week okay so the subpoena has been prepared
it has not been issued yet it is ready to go on the way okay so should we
should expect to see Peter struck testify publicly next week we're still
open to working with him but he needs to understand that he has to do it on our
time table not on his so if he's going to appear voluntarily his lawyer better
contact us right away because the subpoena is coming well I think he'll
hear that message loud and clear and chairman Gowdy you talked a lot about
the timeline of those text messages today and then the big news that the IG
is now confirming that they're looking into whether or not this FBI agent and
his bias whether it impacted the launch of the Russia
investigation that is a big question did it well it's a it's the seminal question
if you look at the chronology of course in late July of 2016 is when the Russia
probe began and you you're not two weeks into it before Peter struck is saying
we'll stop it with the it being the presidency we're not two weeks into it
before he's talking about an insurance policy to make sure Donald Trump is
never the president so so keep in mind he he's two weeks into an investigation
and he's already talking about impeaching the target of his
investigation they hadn't done anything at that point I mean two weeks the
paperwork's not even processed but yet he's already reached his conclusion on
what the outcome of that investigation is fast forward to when he's put on the
Muller probe and he's talking about how important this is and how momentous it
is and he's got a fix and finish what he started with the Hillary Clinton
investigation I have never in twenty years being a
prosecutor seen a law enforcement agent with this amount of animus and bias
towards the target and I hope and pray he comes next week and portrays himself
as a victim I think a lot of people at this point based on that setup are going
to want to see that as well but chairman Goodlatte as far as now the
IG confirming that they're looking into Peter Straub those text messages his
role in the launch of this Russia probe what more after those hearings wrapping
up today what more do you want to know well there's a lot of things that the
Inspector General was not tasked with looking at but he also let's just note
that that same Peter struck was deeply involved the lead investigator in the
Hillary Clinton email investigation and at the same time he was making the
statements that trade just referred to he was also helping a process that bent
over backwards to not follow proper investigative procedures with regard to
former Secretary of State and then presidential candidate Hillary Clinton
that there's a shocking contrast that should
never be allowed again to occur in the Federal Bureau of Investigation and so
we have to continue to pursue that to make sure that the 2020 presidential
election or any other future investigation is not tainted by this
kind of bias and not tainted by the inappropriate procedures happy with the
way things went today chairman I thought it was a very good hearing and I think
that many people were today on both sides of the aisle acknowledging that
the decision that was made by President Trump they don't some of them didn't use
his name as recommended to by Deputy Attorney General Rosen Stein of fire
James Comey was the correct decision chairman Goodlatte and Gowdy I know it
was a really busy day for you a busy day in Washington and and thanks for coming
on the program tonight we appreciate it
